Mr Graeme Hopper

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I am an international masters hockey player , which normally involves playing 5 full games over a 10 day period. Eighteen months ago I got constant pain in my left knee. During a tournament last year I was really struggling to play as was in constant pain from game one and it only got worse over the tournament. I got an MRI and had a consultation with a specialist knee surgeon, who stated that the pain was mainly due to wear and tear. The cartilage had thinned and there were signs of osteoarthritis and inflammation. We tried a cortisone injection which did absolutely nothing for me. I was reluctant to get a partial knee replacement but was not keen on the recovery time and also how successful it would be. After finding out about arthromacid and doing some research I decided to give it a go as it is much less invasive than surgery. The procedure was very straightforward and had a bit of stiffness and a bit of constant pain for about 10 days. Since then I have had bit of constant pain but the majors thing is that I don’t notice it when playing and even managed to play 5 games in 10 days with only a very slight degradation in performance and no significant increase in pain. I am very pleased with the outcome of the procedure and am hoping to be continue playing into the future.

Dulwich Podiatry

Podiatry

Zack treated my son for deep verrucas caused by swimming, and I honestly couldn’t be happier with the care we received. The diagnosis and treatment were done in the same appointment, and everything was handled with so much care and professionalism. My son is 9 years old and was understandably nervous, but Zack was fantastic at keeping him calm, confident, and engaged throughout the treatment. He was reassuring, patient, and made the whole experience far less daunting. The treatment itself was quick and very well managed. We went back for a follow-up today and were given the all-clear, along with a top-up treatment to remove any remaining dead skin and ensure nothing was left behind. Zack explained everything clearly to both my son and me, which really empowered us and reassured us that this was the best course of action. Zack was excellent — funny, caring, and professional — exactly what you want, especially when treating a young child. I would highly recommend him without hesitation.

Miss Ballari Ghosh

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

Since having a cystectomy back in 2023 and being discharged from another hospital, my periods were terribly painful lasting 16+ days causing me a lot pain and some days I felt I was unable to cope, I was often cancelling on plans and having to bin clothing due to the heaviness of my periods. I often felt down due to the pain and felt stuck after being told by another hospital my pain was down to “exam stress” Miss Ghosh believed my pain and investigated with multiple MRI tests, blood tests and ultrasounds I then got diagnosed with Adenomyosis. Miss Ghosh also removed me of the contraceptive patch and changed me over to the mirena coil which has changed my periods. They are now much lighter and do not last any longer than one week and are much more manageable. Miss Ghosh explained thoroughly the benefits of the coil and how if anything changes I can contact her. Thank you Miss Ghosh, you have made a massive impact to me and I am very appreciative. I would highly recommend Miss Ghosh!

Professor Shaun Preston

General Surgeon

Came in December 5th after being told I would have to wait 26 weeks via the NHS. I met up with professor Shaun Preston, who instantly noticed the hernia I had, and saying we could get it operated on before or after Christmas. I chose before as just wanted it sorted and recovery to start. He gave me the option, next Thursday or Friday (11th or 12th), I chose the 12th. Came in, a little nervous but was greeted by very kind faces and had a great chat with Professor Preston, putting me at ease instantly. The surgery was short and I woke up feeling relieved. I came back 3 weeks after the surgery and had a great chat with Professor Preston, asking how my recovery was and how my holidays/festive period was, showing he cared about my well being and personal life. Been given the all clear to slowly get back into training and have Professor Preston’s assistants number, incase anything is to change with my recovery.

Dr Duncan Birth

Obstetrics & Gynaecology

Dr Duncan is a superb obstetrician. We were fortunate to be introduced to him during an open evening at the Portland Hospital, and within minutes of talking to him, I thought that he was the right fit for me during my first pregnancy. My husband and I thoroughly looked forward to each appointment with Dr Duncan during the 9 months of pregnancy; we always felt informed, cared for and safe in his hands. His qualifications and experience speak for themselves, but in addition to that he is a warm and interesting person and we always enjoyed his company, as we did that of Colette, his phenomenal secretary. We are supremely grateful for the experience with Dr Duncan and could not imagine a better one with anyone else.

Mr Sam Norton

I felt so at ease with Mr Norton. He listened to the concerns I had around my problem. Mr Norton thoroughly examined the Cyst and explained the procedure he felt would benefit me most. Very professional. On the day of the surgery I was treated exceptionally well by Mr Norton and his team. During the surgery Mr Norton operated in such a way that the scarring was kept to a minimum. The surgery a complete success. I would not hesitate to recommend Mr Norton to my friend's and family. Thank you Mr Norton.

᠎ Karen Laler

Dietitians

Karen has been an amazing pediatric dietician for our son, Henry. We didn’t know how to navigate the difficult allergies pathway at the beginning. Karen was extremely helpful and precise with her guidance, always taking the time to explain things clearly. Her advice felt tailored to Henry’s needs and made a real difference for us as parents. Karen has always been very empathetic and we felt very well supported anytime we had questions. Can’t thank Karen enough

Miss Lucy Wright

Psychologist

Lucy made me feel at ease from the first minute of our video call. I was able to unmask myself and let her see me how I really am, very different from a previous ADHD and autism assessment with a different provider. She was extremely thorough and asked questions in a way that she was able to tease out answers when I was stuck but did not ask leading questions. She was very empathetic and kind even though she obviously had to follow a script and procedure.

Mr Jiten Parmar

Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon

Mr Parmar was warm, professional and put me and my family at ease. I have struggled with getting support elsewhere and suspected a tongue tie but it finally felt as if someone was listening to me about our issues. The procedure was really quick and my baby was calm.and happy after one minute. Would recommend wholeheartedly to anyone having any issues with breastfeeding. My son is so happy now and making much cuter noises now he can move his tongue!

I was recommended St Giles physiotherapy to take our Son to as he was complaining of knee pain. Claudiu diagnosed what was wrong and gave our son various exercises to do to help with the pain. Our son also had laser treatment and massages which really helped. The exercise programme we continued with at home too using a friendly app to track progress. I highly recommend St Giles physiotherapy and Claudiu.
